12) After the battery has discharged and the mo-
tor has stopped, spray motor spray through the motor
openings until the fluid runs clear. Apply a couple of
drops of Break-In Drops to the bushings and wipe
away all of the excess using paper towels.

the propeller adapter. Reverse the removal steps for
installation.
The covering material used on the Egret ARF is a
heat shrink polyester material. Because of this, it is
possible with heat and humidity changes that the
covering on your airplane may wrinkle or sag. This
trait is inherent in all types of heat shrink material.
To remove the wrinkles you will need to purchase,
or borrow from a fellow modeler, a heat iron. If
you need to purchase one, the Global Sealing Iron
is recommended.

INSTALLING THE WING PANELS
Follow these simple steps to remove the wrinkles:
❑
1) Plug in and turn on the sealing iron to the
medium temperature setting. Allow the iron to heat
up for approximately 5 - 7 minutes.
❑
2) After the iron has reached temperature,
lightly apply the iron to the wrinkled section of
the covering. Move the iron slowly over the
wrinkled section until the covering tightens and the
wrinkles disappear. You will notice that the color
of the covering will darken when it is heated. When
the covering cools back down, it will return to its
normal color.
☛
If the color layer smears from any of the seams
the temperature of the iron is too hot. Turn the tem-
perature dial down and wait about 5 minutes for the
iron to adjust to the lower temperature. You can re-
move any color streaks using a paper towel soaked
with a small quantity of acetone.

carefully push the 3mm x 60mm steel rod into the
predrilled forward hole and the 2mm x 40mm steel
rod into the predrilled rear hole in the root rib.

they both bottom out and can't be pushed in any
farther. See photo # 3 below.

on the left side of the center pod. The two steel rods
slide through the two predrilled holes in the upper
portion of the center pod. See photo # 4 below.
